Jewish congressmen fight genocide bill
Jewish Telegraphic Agency Thursday, 18 October 2007
WASHINGTON (JTA) — Two Jewish congressmen are
working
to keep the Armenian genocide bill from reaching the US House
of Representatives floor.
US Reps. Robert
Wexler (D-Fla.) and Stephen Cohen (D-Tenn.),
as well as three other opponents of the controversial bill
memorializing the killings of Armenians by the Ottoman Empire
during World War I, spoke harshly of its implications for US
relations with Turkey at a news conference Wednesday in
Washington.
The bill, which would label the killings as genocide,
was approved
by the House Foreign Affairs Committee by a 27-21 vote on Oct.
10. At that time it had 226 co-sponsors, but support has waned
due to threats from Turkey to withdraw support for American
troops in Iraq if it is passed.
More than half of the cargo traveling from the U.S.
to Iraq is
flown through Turkey's Incerlik air base, and Turkish troops are
allied with Americans on the ground in Iraq and Afghanistan.
President Bush is fiercely opposed to the resolution.
"The Middle
East is a tinderbox," Wexler said. "Our responsibility
is to bring as much stability as is humanly possible."
Cohen added that
passage of the bill would cause "real-time
harm to real people."*
